Dreams

Jeremy Leach

Moonlight shimmers on the shore
Where dreams lay harboured in the night
One by one they set their sails
To ride the waves of silvery light

 

Seeking out the dreamer's eye
They carry visions from the deep
Silhouettes against the stars
They cross the silent bay of sleep

 

Mooring by the dreamer's glance
They drop their cargo in the mind
The dreamer stirs and softly sighs
As thoughts begin to slowly grind

 

Behold the dreamer centre stage !
Heartfelt words, erotic embrace
Thumping heartbeat, running, crying
Gentle hand on tear-stained face

 

Through the hours the scenes unfold
The tide it swirls in ebb and flow
Until the time all cargo's spent
And world has turned and dreams must go

 

Sails are set and ropes are cast
As moonlight slowly fades to blue
The dreams dissolve into the sun
With fleeting visions you once knew

          Yes Jeremy, you have been bitten by the writer's bug. And I do believe there's no cure except to keep writing. Very well written Jeremy.
